There is a lesson to be learned after former 'Cosby Show' star Geoffrey Owens was shamed on social media and on Fox News for bagging groceries at a Trader Joe's in New Jersey last week.

A lesbian couple took photos of the 57-year-old actor bagging groceries, and they uploaded the photos to social media.

"I was just in Trader Joe's and I said to my wife, I said, 'Wait a minute, that's the guy from The Cosby Show'," Karma Lawrence told the Daily Mail UK.

"I used to watch The Cosby Show all the time; it was my favorite show. It was definitely him," she added. "I would have thought after The Cosby Show he would maybe be doing something different. It was a shock to see him working there and looking the way he did. It made me feel really bad. I was like, 'Wow, all those years of doing the show and you ended up as a cashier.' Other fans would be surprised for sure as well."

In an appearance on ABC's Good Morning America, Owens opened up about the support he's received. "I really want to thank everyone out there... for the amazing support and positivity they showed me."

Owens said he wasn't ashamed of working at Trader Joe's for 15 months, but he wanted to keep his job a secret because he didn't want Hollywood to think he was done with acting.

Many believed Owens was an out-of-work actor, but he has worked in television and movies over the last 30 years. Owens has found steady work on TV shows such as "The Affair", "Divorce" and "Elementary".

Owens said he's received "hints" of acting job offers. He added that he and his wife were "devastated" and "hurt" after the photos went viral.

'You gotta do what you gotta do," he said. "I wanted a job that I could have some flexibility to try and stay in the business," he added.

The photo and her caption sparked debate on social media and offline over job-shaming. Many wondered why Lawrence violated Owens' privacy or demeaned him for bagging groceries.

Owens, who played Cosby's milquetoast son-in-law Elvin Tibideaux, told Robin Roberts he would feel uncomfortable if he received acting jobs as a result of the photos. "I want to get a [acting] job because I'm the right person for that job," he said.

Owens said he feels like more of a celebrity now than he ever was. He acknowledged that all the attention will soon fade, but he said he hopes people will not demean others based on what they do for a living.

"There's Dignity in Working," he said. "No one has to feel sorry for me. I'm doing fine."

Celebrities such as Patricia Heaton, Donnie Wahlberg and Terry Crews weighed in to show their support for Owens.

"I don't know #GeoffreyOwens," Wahlberg said on Twitter.com. "I know this -- Almost every successful actor, singer, athlete or celebrity, is one lucky (unlucky) break away from bagging groceries themselves. Few would admit it. Fewer humble enough to do it."

"Until you've walked in the shoes or felt the pain of another human being - don't judge them, dismiss them or presume to know their struggle," he continued.

American football-star-turned actor Terry Crews tweeted, "I swept floors AFTER the @NFL. If need be, I'd do it again. Good honest work is nothing to be ashamed of."

Yes, you gotta do what you gotta do buuuuut, I’d rather do data entry on the low —

Well, I wish him all the luck.

Kanyade

shame he had to quit his job. let that man work in piece. people so quick with the cell phone crap, just recording all willy-nilly. need to ask folks permission first and if they say NO, then respect their wishes; their privacy.

http://sandrarose.com SandraRose

He said he was embarrassed and hurt by all the unwanted attention on his job.

Kimocha

He's a damn fool! I wouldn't have quit my job!

RentEmSpoons

Yeah, but you was never a star on a hit family T.V show either, no disresepct, but you cant possibly compare you to him.Sadly, due to fucked up times, he became an attraction in wrong way for making an honest living after many t.v programs stopped airing reruns of the show.

Coy little wink

I could not be a celebrity...say gooodbye privacy ?

hi-liter

Wow, all those years of doing the show and you ended up as a cashier.
___________________________________________________________
I hate people. All these years of doing men and you ended up as a lesbian.

Kimocha

Well... I hope he can afford to just up and quit his job like that....

imright

good news is Tyler Perry saw the headlines and will be giving him work in his next movie, ??

Kimocha

Now you probably right about that!

SweetTEE

Well he had the realest reply ever. I know how it is to not work in your field and take a pay cut for a job just to make ends meet.

Miss Thang

It's better to be a HAS BEEN than a NEVER WAS. I swear people just can't mind their business anymore. Would you rather he be a drugged up junkie mess still chasing the limelight?? Let this man support his family and live his life in peace!

Miss Thang

I really hope this is true. Tyler knows what it is to struggle.

KLove

He is correct...there is dignity in ALL work. I'm sure bagging groceries wasnt his ideal job, but im sure he has financial obligations that have to be taken care of. He could be out here trying to swindle folks or partaking in some other unsavory activities to try to keep up a certain lifestyle.

hi-liter

Has anyone seen a pic of Karma Lawrence yet? Wonders what she looks like. How is he suppose to look 25 years later? Bih please.

KLove

One of the Braxton sisters (i wanna say Towanda) used to work at ATT with me until they blew up....nothing wrong with having a 9-5 until you make it big!

he's weak, he succumbed to societal pressure and it cause him to quite

KLove

Right....what type of elitist BS is that??? I wonder what the lesbian woman does for a living, while she is busy looking down on someone else.

hi-liter

He said he didn't want any acting roles based off of those pics. The man teaches acting classes as well as directing, so hopefully Tyler got something good for him.

RentEmSpoons

He will be good, he has lowkey become a martyr for all of the right reasons. Some company may pick him up behind the scenes after seeing his story. I wouldnt be surprised if someone starts a gofundme page for him. Also, this is only more press for Trader Joes.

Ni Ni

I read that one of the ladies works in medical records, yet she had to run to the tabloids to tell this.

WutizstillHERE!

ALLLLUUUUDIS^^^^^^^^^

Miss3rdWard

That part!

RentEmSpoons

Wow, i just said that someone would see the story and reach out, God is working.

hi-liter

Medical records aint breaking the bank, that's why she sold to the tabloids. Or are you talking about the "privacy" part of the job?

Ni Ni

Their pics are posted over on the alley.

http://sandrarose.com SandraRose

White people saw him and politely spoke. But leave it to one of us to shame the man.

hi-liter

It Never fails.

RentEmSpoons

To be honest he probably was living comfortably collecting those residual checks from reruns of the Cosby show for years, but only T.V one broadcasts the show now, so checks probably dried up, either way he will start to get new offers after his story.

Kimocha

Yea... I heard Tyler Perry wants to offer him a role... so yes... this was a blessing in disguise for him...

SingleGalCrazyWorld

I was about to say I've seen him on a few shows since the Cosby show...usually like a once off thing but I've seen him...those offers will be pouring in now so good for him...

Ni Ni

I can understand it though. He could no longer work in peace and probably could no longer concentrate on his duties for fans coming in who had heard about this story. His manager, other employees could have been annoyed with all thr added attention.

We also have to remember he was a costar not a main character....I’m honestly not surprised, not sure why those customers were. I commend him for feeding his family and there is absolutely nothing wrong with his occupation!

Nik

I just read that TP is offering him a role on the Haves and the Have Nots. I never watched it but I will tune in if Geoffrey takes the role.

Miss Thang

yes, God is good.

Nik

People think acting jobs are so plentiful not realizing there are a lot of actors in between gigs or who were on a great show and are never heard from again. It's a volatile business. Kudos to him for his humility. Some people never had a great job a day in their lives and would take umbrage at being a cashier.

This story pissed me smooth the fukk off. How dare anyone SHAME someone for doing decent hard work? These service and retail jobs are nowhere MEANT to be glamorous. They are a ways to a means for MANY. The couple who did this pissed me off…and the WIFE MAY lose HER damn job.

Comes to find out she is store security of this same Trader Joe’s and from a comments section I saw this on, someone was saying the angle one of the pics supposedly came from is NOT from a camera phone. Its almost as if its an overhead. Which means security footage of this man was released unknowingly and for no reason other than to SHAME HIM.

Ironically one of the women is named KARMA.

People get on my dayum nerves!

Nik

The REAL Karma will bite them in the @$$ and soon!

I probably would not had known who he was, in the store.

E-VannaRootsAllEvil

Say that!!!

SunRiseBlossom

Me either!!!

hottlanta

So the lesbians trying 2 job shame him for not having an acting job. But if someone was 2 sex shame them for not having sex with a man especially when your mate looks like a man n they r a woman the lgtbqrxyz community would be all over them.

yeah, no one wants to become a spectacle. how about somebody go to her job and comment on how she should be doing 'better' ....folks need to remember that no matter how 'high' they think they are, there's always someone more successful. and i'm sure this bih ain't part of the 1%, so a further FOH to her for trying to humiliate a man for an honest day's work!

Number one question, did they ask him for permission.
Fox is about the stupidest good for nothing network. All they do is spread lies. They did their best and worst job, trying to shame him. What a terrible thing to do to a hard working man.
I blocked Fox from even showing on my line up. Screw them and all of there trashy fake journalist.

amen

SpillyNillie

Folks stay up in other folks face! I wouldn't have recognized Mr. Owens for one second. Karma go sitcho ass down some where! If he didn't have a job and was on the skreet corner you would've snapped and captioned that as well!!! Have several...

store security???!!!!!!!!!! i would have thought these bishes were captains of industry the way they looked down their moist azz noses at this man!

NuBeauty

Reading the comments on this post, I agree with Sandra about Social Media. To add more, Social Media has shown how heartless people really are. Some times looking at the things on SM is depressing because I am just smdh. People rather video a crime, murder, rape, child abuse or video to embarrass somebody...for likes and followers from people you barely or don't even know. I wonder by recording him made her feel any better about herself? If the whole Tyler Perry story is true from what I am reading (from the comments)….just when somebody trying to throw a negative his way...BOOM...something positive came through and said "NOT TODAY".

her employer might wanna make sure she's hip to HIPAA, since she likes to 'expose' sh*t, smh

Soda

How would you feel working at a job where people come to gawk at you?

Miss Thang

I don't care for his artistry, but I have to respect his integrity and love for his people. Tyler has proven that he is for the underdog, and I love that.

justlooking

I am here in my office shaking my head. You post this. Nothing about 45 running his mouth like drunk crackhead. Or about that gay man he has nominated, for Sumpreme court. A parkland dad tried to shake his hand and he turned his back
How callus can you be?

Why is Kara's face not spread all across the news? I want to see the face of the woman that secretly took a picture of this man and shared it online. Irrespective of how he feels about his job, the fact of the matter is that she saw it as a fall from grace and intentionally and maliciously exposed him to the world. Trifling self important bytch.

I commend him for being willing to work, anywhere, to provide for his family. There are a lot of women and men that think they are too good for certain positions.

Karen Brady

I'm sorry but one of the main reasons I had to cut a 'friend' off a couple years ago is cuz she stayed in your damn face with her phone taking pics and posting them and had the audacity to get angry when I'd tell her that it upsets me. She was super alpha and super disrespectful and controlling so I cut her loose in 2015 and haven't thought about her til now.

Renee26

I hate to see people filming or taking pics of people without their knowledge or permission... Very rude

I wouldn't.. I'm always rushing through TJ's just trying to pay for my snacks and be on my way. Speaking of which.. them damn mini orgainc cheese sandwich crackers. And the damn caramel corn. Mmph mmph mmph. But I digress ya'll.

Tidday jess aint my day! I been fuss'n and carry'n on all day. People jess gettin on my nerves. Now this...these two nosey bidchez were wrong. Just outtaline. Geoffrey is a private citizen no longer in the public eye. The mans working,minding his own dam bidnez. He's not out there soliciting /panhandling. What's wrong with an honest pay for an honest days work.

He’s an awesome guy. And if you look at his page on IMDb he has worked for years all through the years in hollyweird. I give him credit for not sitting on his butt

dontgetblocked

A lot of us found ourselves in retail or any worse jobs during the recession. We did what we had to do to pay the bills. I endured cruel laughs from former co-workers or people in my past. I worked the blue collar job while earning a graduate degree and pulled myself up by my bootstraps. Karma is a bish. Someone is going to give this man an opportunity and he will come out on top. How dare they laugh at someone simply trying to earn a living.

I'm waiting for someone to sue the hell out of social media platforms for this same reason. People are always snapping pics of others people and other peoples kids and homes and posting them all over the place. I don't want my image on nobody social media page that doesn't clear it with me first and I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way.

I endured cruel laughs from former co-workers or people in my past.

What?! people actually do this??!!! I'm sorry for your experience, but i hope they can see that you (and God) turned your situation around. (i also hope they're prepared for their own 'down time' (you know the old folks used to say "laughing is catching")). even when people have wronged me, i NEVER laugh at them when it comes back around. i might comment that "it is written" but that's about it... i keep it pushing... won't have me blocking my own blessings laughing at people. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4bf66981bd226f3155956908ddad1e749db4abf3e9bc038eda5a63f0a56d9934.gif

they did the same thing to Gary Coleman. Showing up at the man's security job and messing with him. Idk wtf is is wrong with people. Let folks live! There's enough people seeking the limelight. Follow them! Not the folks who are just handling their business and aren't bothering anybody.

Nik

Once that picture starts to really circulate, folks are going to let her have it! #letthegamesbegin

Nik

tee hee!

Nik

You are fortunate. I got sucked in but I have only 50 friends on my list. No Twitter, though!

And if she's got skeletons in her closet or dirt from the past, folk on the internet have a way of finding stuff and putting it on front street for all to see. She'd better hope nobody goes looking to dig up dirt on her.

jeniefrumdabloc™

Bet the same folks that did new edition movies and look like the same actors

With this unwanted attention, i hope he is able to secure additional acting jobs.

Girl! You're not too far off, that's all I'm going to say about her family life.

Thank you!! I'm waiting on the day too. It's just out of control. Sometimes I'm out somewhere and I'll give some stranger the look of death if it looks like I'm about to be in their shot. I don't know you fool!

Li-Wright

People don't know this but TRADER JOES hires ALL actors. They flock to TJ because of the flexible hoursd and the owners prefer actors. They're friendlier and hard workers. They work flexible hours. I talked to a couple of them and they told me they go on auditions and work TJ.

Karma should be feeling sorry for her DAMN SELF for being the kind of person who takes a picture of a man working, sells it, and degrades the man for making a living! If he was strung out on skid row people wouldn’t be as shocked as they are to see a man, a Yale grad BTW, working an honest job and it’s sad! Karma, where did you get your education? Or are you just living off our security guard wife. Y’all are probably only making $35K a year yourselves!

Girl, Jen on basketball wives could really use your services. ?? You ALWAYS come through with the receipts. Chile, she couldn’t find nathan…??Do you want me to do the plug for you???

dru and neil

Exactly he is a working actor, big deal. Hopefully something positive will come out of this mess because outwardly he seems like a commendable man. And when he said that he’s thankful because he’s had the kind of acting career most actors do not have he’s absolutely right! Most people NEVER make it in the Hollywood, but he’s had a very popular syndicated sitcom which is an accomplishment as an actor.

‘Wow, all those years of doing the show and you ended up as a cashier.’

****

THIS statement is the epitome of evil, condescension, ignorance, and arrogance. Only a shallow lowlife ridicules a family man, an accomplished man, who is earning an honest day's pay to take care of his family.

Geoffrey Owens is a true superstar.

hottlanta

2 lesbians making fun of a man working 2 feed his family n they wondering why when they were straight no man wanted 2 have a relationship with them.

PlayerP

What I find most disturbing about this whole social media haze is that people feel NO NONE ZERO compunction about taking a picture of someone that YOU DON'T KNOW that is a STRANGER to you nor have their PERMISSION to take the picture let alone post the shit online??? I think many of us, men and women alike, know those creepy ass dudes who take pictures of women's butts or up their skirts. It puts me in the mind of that...CREEPY AF!

A woman who claims she has a WIFE, shouldn't run around trying to embarrass people. Someone should explain to her that the only way a woman becomes a wife, is when she marries a MAN.

These two idiots need to be exposed by name by the media. The least they can do is send him a letter of apology. I wish Geoffrey nothing but the best. I wish I had a Yale degree and graduated cum laude like he did.

that battle was lost a long time ago though.... and let me be clear, i take no issue with equal treatment/rights. however, i do draw the line at changing the very definition of a thing to make it 'fit' another thing that it does not define.

SweetTEE

And let's be honest here, that mess is a quick way to get punched in the eye if you catch the right person. And those same people would claim you did them wrong. smh.

SweetTEE

well geesh lol

SweetTEE

She publicly embarrassed that man... she gon get her's and we call that KARMA.

Y’all Jealous Cuz I’m Prudy

You talking about turning what was meant for evil into a blessing. I bet she wasn't expecting this kind of outcome, while she was looking for a laugh.

The jokes on her stalking áss.

https://twitter.com/Chicagowise Chicagowise

I agree 100%! Husband and wife are terms used to define the participants in heterosexual marriage. If my people want to get married, fine, but don't run around pretending your union is something that it's not.

dru and neil

I was at dinner with a group of folks last week, one of the girls who is gay asked if she could hook me up with one of her girls, I told her I was into men and she got real bent out of shape and indignant, telling me “suit yourself” after she couldn’t convince me to go the other way, then she wouldn’t speak to me. I remember thinking when did gay people start getting so damn discriminating and rude?!

Flexible hours, benefits, upscale environment, and employee discount on some the best and most expensive organic and gluten-free produce and grocery brands. Trader Joe's is an excellent job choice for a family man between acting, writing, and directing gigs.

Many people behind the counter at Starbucks have multiple degrees. Many Uber drivers are small business owners. I can't understand shaming people for taking care of themselves and their family.

dru and neil

I hate it when people take a picture or try to pull me into picture, then get pissed when you decline too.

dru and neil

And would she want somebody taking a picture her and her big ole gut in a tight t-shirt, caught off guard at work.

Allihave2say

They should have turned the camera around, snapped themselves and captioned the photo "Can you believe a woman has a wife? Marriage is a Biblical Institution designed for a man and a woman yet here we are wife & wife; woman & woman".

Mind your damn business. This black man is making an honest living and white folks are making a mockery of him. We can't work, BBQ or be entrepreneurs without public scrutiny. SMDH.

Anji

Geoff has a degree, he's taught acting, he just needs folk speak and move on, not upload pics to the innanet. Most of SAG/AFTRA has a primary job that allows flex time for when they get a part. I was a child actor, travelled and went to school, then taught and coached. I never wanted to put more than one year in on the acting. Surprised at the comments. Maybe folk don't know how few actors, act full-time.

dru and neil

LMAOOO. I have to say this story did make me a little pissed! That man is literally doing what we criticize so many people for not doing, hard work! He’s a humble guy and doesn’t deserve to be crapped on.

Lesbian couple, eh? Why they all up in his kool-aid though? They probably ain't never seen a Cosby Show in their entire life.

No one cares that they lick p*ssy and eat a**, so why should we care about him WORKING. I swear.....damn if you do, damn if you don't.

Karma, huh? Dis beyotch here done pissed me all the way off. Can't believe it was a Sista hating on this man like this! Since we supposing stuff about folks, I bet "Karna" is what she named her repurposed self after successfully completing ___months of sobriety. Her 40yr old wife looks like her sober living coach. WTF is the government name Karma was born with 50 yrs ago? Probation status? Current Employer? Talmbout she "felt sorry" for him but turned around and tried to shame the man for minding his own business...GTFOH. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7f5644a1421a8cd6640698f0fb6bcb7fef908409cd97bebdfcb5d8200aae7fa3.gif

How does a lesbian who is the man in a relationship laugh at a straight man that works by any means necessary 2 fed his family. He is showing the wanna b man in a female relationship this is what real men do because the male lesbians think being a man is all about the sex.

I knew a guy who had custody of two kids and was working but not making enough...he qualified for food stamps even though he worked but would not accept them because of his “Pride”...so he said they will eat peanut butter and jelly a couple of night out of the week....

he quit because Tyler Perry offered him a job, also. But still I am glad it worked out for him in his best interest

karma lawrence. photo's all over twitter. Fox News should have never posted the story. Some of these basic jobs (company) off really good benefits. That's none of our business cuz fact is, the man was earning an honest living, still acting, and also an acting coach to many students who chimed in on this defending Geoffrey.

I resent the lesbian couple who outed him cold hearted bishes sold him out to the Daily Mail and they showed a photo of them, ugly inside and out!!

The are a fugly lesbian married couple their photo was used in the first article about him on the Daily Mail dunno if it's still there.

This burns my ASS. No, do not take a picture of me and I can guarantee to extend the same courtesy to every person, famous or not.

She definitely thought folks were going to be laughing at him. Um, he's a grown man with a job supporting a family on the side of acting. What's the punch line, ugly?

Agreed. You'd be surprised how many people thinking they can just snap a pic of a complete stranger or 'celeb' like it's nothing. Um, no.

Man I just saw this wilderbeast photo. She ought to be ashamed.

Malcom Flex

Their names were used in the first article the Daily Mail posted about this they were at the end of the story, gloating and looking fug. Their names were used, also. I didn't screen shot but should have disgusting brauds!

Malcom Flex

I'm not sorry to say this is a BLACK THING not a people thing. BP are the ones who will video and snap ya azz if your throat is cut or you got shot instead of calling 911. BP the ones saying WORLDSTAR while another BP lays dying!! Black folks will try to shame a man for working a decent job, to bring viral fame on themselves.

Malcom Flex

The brauds are fug, I saw their photo.

hottlanta

The man in the relationship looks like. Kanye West.

Ryan

The fact that they went running to the Daily Fail means they ain't sh|t.

Kim’s Original Face

Their accounts are probably private. Disgusting human beings I wish I could leave a comment on their page. Stupid asses

Malcom Flex

They sold him out for petty coin. Many of 'us' black people are like that some will sell you out for nathan. Example. WORLDSTAR.

Malcom Flex

I bet they're proud of themselves. Cold hearted brauds!

TheOwley

I don't get their mockery. Truly saddo women.

Ryan

One of many reasons why I don't go to Worldstar.

Malcom Flex

Agreed. I'm tired of how cold and heartless we are to each other for petty shine or coin!

Malcom Flex

Fugly inside and out.

Malcom Flex

I hope they're reading this. Cold bishes!

Y’all Jealous Cuz I’m Prudy

I have to see what these perfect women look like ?

Logan Roberts

I'm so happy for Geoffrey & Tyler Perry offered him a job. God is so good. I wonder what the hell those two termites that posted his picture do for a living? There's nothing more sexy than a honest, hardworking man.

I wonder how much the Daily Mail paid them?

Tena

Wow! This is fantastic!

Mrs. S. Kidd

He's probably better off working at Trader Joe's. I heard TP is cheap.

Mrs. S. Kidd

Why are we lying to ourselves about this man's financial position? If he is still receiving Cosby, they are no more than $30 every now and then. The older the show is, the less the checks are. He's not doing well financially which is why he was working at Trader Joe's.

Perhaps thos residual checks stop coming in when the cosby show was yanked off the air.

davine puddin

Side note so if he was waiting tables like most of Hollywood that would be suitable? Big up to trader joes for allowing him to have a flexiable schedule

Solstice

Misery loves company. ?

Solstice

These women were attempting to tear him down. Little did they know God intervened and he got the plug with Tyler Perry!! This is awesome!! ?????

Disgustd

His father if I'm not mistaken, is also a former congressman. I remember reading that when he was still on Cosby.

Offtopic - Congrats Ayanna pressley, The Blue Wave is coming.

Most staffers in WH thinks 45 is a retard. Their words not mind. They also thinks he has understanding of a 5th grade of country........Duhhhhhh that's plain as day.

Oh Go Nike, for choosing Kaepernick.

SeannaPaula

Malcom Flex say it again for them in the back, i have been experiencing this for 17 years Gov. claimed i did shyt i ain;t did, and everywhere i go from city to state my people gives me hell, it has been a living nightmare. all for the almighty $$$ don;t care if what they been told is true or not all they care about is they getting paid to make me and my family life hell.

Jersey Girl

That's what I was thinking...shout out to trader joes for providing him with that opportunity ..

Jersey Girl

facts as if working is detested or something. This culture especially in music makes it seem like everbody dripping in diamonds and flying around the world on a weekly basis... This aint that.. lol Some people work..It says more about Hollywood... Face on TV means nothing!!

Jersey Girl

Agreed! But God works in mysterious ways. His humble nature and their need for social media ATTENTION worked in his favor...

Coco_Butter

Nor is he begging and some people start those GoFundMe accounts with ill intentions.

A couple in trouble now for raising $400k for a homeless man only to keep it for themselves

I’m just glad all those actors came out and said between jobs they’ll do anything deep floors, work at Targe, bartender etc...

imright

???

Tammie Reed

YEP!

TOO REAL

Of all people you would think lesbian couple would be more sensitive.

Malcom Flex

She was trying to go viral. But at 50 years old you'd think she had more compassion and better sense. We gotta stop selling each other out, doesn't matter what other races do.
